Dear Mike, I try this: sudo apt-get purge epson-inkjet-printer-n10-nx127
And removed it without problems. Then: sudo apt-get purge lsb librpmbuild3 But it gave: dpkg: error processing librpmbuild3 (--purge): Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should reinstall it before attempting a removal. Errors were encountered while processing: librpmbuild3 E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) So I did: sudo aptitude reinstall librpmbuild3 And could finally get rid of the error... Now I'll try to install epson drivers again.
